Chapter 446: V331: Since they don’t want to help, let’s take them down and become the powerful ones ourselves!
On the other side of Rong City, when the news of Gu Zixuan investigating Liang Shiman reached Liang Shiman’s ears.She was in the dimly decorated villa, laughing more mockingly.
"It seems each one of them has found their way to me!"
Beside her, Song Qingchen just learned of the situation, looking grave and somewhat headache-ridden with worry, "Cousin, what should we do? It used to be just He Qimo investigating us, now Feng Chengjin has found out through Mr. Liang, and even Gu Zixuan has started investigating. All three forces are moving in on us..."
If the Yu Family were to join in next.
Although individually they weren’t afraid of anyone.
But back then, her cousin was intent on marrying He Qimo, not just because she liked him, but also because He Qimo’s image was good and he was capable, unlike other elite families who kept a respectful distance from them. If He Qimo really wanted to do something, he could be quite ruthless.
Her cousin believed with He Qimo’s ability, he could lead them into the elite social circle no matter what.
But now, she didn’t cling to the person, all the waiting and plotting came to nothing, and it has attracted so many elite families against them. They came to the South to do business, to put it plainly, for money.
If this escalates, it could destroy years of business foundation in the South...
Song Qingchen shivered slightly, thinking of Uncle Liang Cong’s temperament, feeling a little fearful, thinking of Uncle Liang Tianyou, even more so...
Song Qingchen was timid, Liang Shiman just sneered, "What? Are you scared now?"
Song Qingchen didn’t know what to say, so he just responded, "But betting on years of business foundation in the South is a big gamble. Even if we’re not afraid, it would be a loss. Shouldn’t we inform Uncle about this?"
Song Qingchen’s uncle was Liang Shiman’s father.
At these words, Liang Shiman looked even more mocking, her eyes cold and fierce, emitting countless icy rays, "If you’re really that scared, you might as well go back to Shandong."
"..." Song Qingchen was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, recalling how Yu Wei had slapped him so many times for Gu Zixuan, feeling equally indignant.
Song Qingchen remained silent, so Liang Shiman retorted mockingly, "You’re not willing either, are you? Qingchen, neither am I. That’s why I’ve gambled all my youth and love, I’ve bet my family’s entire business and southern enterprises. Do you really think I can’t live without He Qimo? It’s not that, it’s that these so-called elite families in Rong City look down on us who came from black market origins, don’t they? Over the years, transitioning late, some businesses are not easy to do, and with Mr. Liang presiding, he’s constantly tripping up us Northern Liang Family members! Reluctant to ally by marriage with our family, someone of He Qimo’s stature is unwilling to join forces with us, if we fail this time, in Rong City and the Southern Three Provinces, who will still marry the daughters of the Liang Family?"
"So, cousin, what you mean is..." Song Qingchen had a thought.
Liang Shiman pursed her lips with hatred, "Since none of them want to help us across this hurdle, then we’ll take down these Southerners ourselves and become elite families ourselves! At least, pulling down one family earns us fame, destroying two... we shall see if the equilibrium between the Northern and Southern Liang Families for over twenty years shifts or not!"
Understanding now why her cousin targeted Gu Zixuan and plotted for so many years, Song Qingchen exclaimed in amazement, "Oh~~~"
